Chapter 50: Zhou Song

In the wing room in the backyard of Jimo County, Zhao Min and Zhang Hao sat opposite each other, and Meng Hou sat aside. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhao Min first offered Zhang Hao a cup of fragrant tea, and said: "What Fang Caimin said is not a lie, this is indeed a tea fried by Min himself. This is not a joke, Zhao Min tried to roast tea before leaving Jimo and setting off for Jiaozhou Bay, he used to be in the dormitory with the senior brother of the tea science major of the school when he was in college in his previous life, and he followed them to learn the process of picking tea and roasting tea, so it is quite easy to operate himself, but perhaps because of the tea variety, he always feels that some taste is missing, but at least it is much better than the brewed tea of this era, so that the Menghou, Xiahou brothers and others who have tried it are full of praise.

Zhang Hao's face was full of bitterness, he picked up the teacup and put it to his lips and hesitated for a long time, and finally put down the teacup with a long sigh, and said to Zhao Min: "Since you have become a prisoner of the King of Beihai, you don't deserve to be treated so favorably by the prince." If the king of the North Sea has anything to ask, just ask, the villain knows everything. ”

Zhao Min nodded with satisfaction, it is still such a prisoner who is conscious, it seems that he is not Lu Xu's descendant; If they are all diehards like the dead soldiers of the North Sea, they would rather die than give in or something that is the most annoying. Zhao Min was not hypocritical, and asked: "I heard that Zhang Dong's family has been in Jimo for several years, why did he ignore the small family and do such an unwise act?" ”

Zhang Hao sighed again, and then told an unknown story.

It turned out that Zhang Hao was actually a giant of Mount Tai in his early years, and he was known as the Four Heavenly Kings of Mount Tai along with Mount Tai Geng Chun, Gong Bi, and Xu Zizai. Originally, they gathered in the Wuthering Mountains and forests on Mount Tai, so uncomfortable; However, the red scarf was in turmoil, Yanzhou was the hardest hit area of the red scarf, so there were also red scarf leaders to win over the people of Mount Tai, and the four kings of Mount Tai also had differences because of this matter, and finally Gong Bi and Xu Zizai pulled up a team to go down the mountain, and the result was destroyed with the main force of the red scarf, and Geng Chun took the opportunity to collect and merge the people of the two people who left the mountain to strengthen their own power. Zhang Hao was disheartened when he saw this scene, and decided to wash his hands and withdraw from the rivers and lakes. He finally brought a group of old brothers who did not want to continue to stay in the cottage to Jimo, with years of savings, opened a gold shop, the brothers did not want to be too far away, some in the gold shop to help, some of their own work, settled in Jimo City, these four or five years are also at ease. Unexpectedly, one day, a man who claimed to be the guard of Beihai County came to the door, saying that he knew their origins, and threatened to arrest them and report to the officials! Zhang Hao was about to fight to the death, but the man suddenly said that he could help them hide their identities, provided that they needed to do something for him; At this time, Zhang Hao had already married a wife and had children in Jimo, and most of the old brothers had a family, so he had already lost his ambition. Unexpectedly, this person said that he had not thought about anything for the time being, and only took out a 'confession' for everyone to draw and detain, and said that he would return the 'confession' to everyone after finishing the matter in the future. People had to bow their heads under the eaves, but Zhang Hao and others finally accepted it. Later, I learned from this mouth that Lu Xu, the current Beihai County Shou, had a relationship with Zhang Hao when he was the county governor in Taishan County, so he recognized them. I didn't think that there had been no news for several years, and Zhang Hao even thought that Lord Taishou had forgotten about it; Unexpectedly, just a few days ago, someone who claimed to be the son of Lu Taishou came to the door and asked them to fulfill the promise they made back then.

Speaking of this, Zhao Min and Meng Hou glanced at each other, this Lu Taishou was so scheming, I'm afraid the picture is not small! And doing things by unscrupulous means, it can even be said to be blatant and crazy! Isn't it? Dare to use such a means as buying murder and slaughtering county officials, it's not madness! It's just to fulfill an order from the Prime Minister, is it necessary to be like this and not share the same hatred as killing his father and taking his wife? Zhao Min couldn't believe it, the Shou of a county would be such a foolish and loyal person, could it be that he had other intentions hidden behind it?

Zhao Min frowned and asked, "Then what Gongzi Lu asked you to do is to get rid of me?" ”

Zhang Hao shook his head: "It's not just to kill you, but to get rid of everyone in the mansion!" ”

Zhao Min gasped: What a vicious method! Is it really a county order that breaks the family, and the prefect who destroys the door?

At this time, Zhang Hao spoke: "According to the villain's observation, Lu Gongzi's focus is not to get rid of the Beihai King, because the villain's brother has determined that the Beihai King is not in the mansion earlier, and I heard him inadvertently reveal that the news of the so-called pre-Qin treasure ship earlier was also deliberately spread by him, so it can be seen that the actual purpose is to transfer the Beihai King out of the mansion." Knowing that the King of Beihai was not in the mansion, Lu Gongzi still asked the villain to slaughter the mansion, although he deliberately covered it up, but he was careful to realize that his focus was to ask the villain to find a book. ”

"A book? What kind of book" Zhao Minzhang and the second monk were puzzled.

"That's right, according to Lu Gongzi, that book should be in the study of the King of Beihai, and the title of the book is "Song of Zhou".

At this time, Meng Hou suddenly interjected and asked, "Is Lu Gongzi still in Jimo?" ”

Zhang Hao replied: "It should still be there, and when he left, he said that he would wait in the backyard of the villain's house." ”

Meng Hou looked at Zhao Min: "Please order the king of Beihai to arrest the thief surnamed Lu immediately, don't get away with the main culprit!" ”

Zhao Min was actually embarrassed at this time, you said that you are too dignified and guarded, it is not good to stay at home, what are you doing here to make trouble? I don't plan to turn my face directly now, but if I catch the son of the Lu family, it's a hot potato! However, looking at Meng Hou's eager gaze, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Then Mr. Lao will arrange it." ”

Meng Hou hurriedly said goodbye and left, leaving only Zhao Min and Zhang Hao in the house. Zhao Min poured Zhang Hao a cup of hot tea again, and asked with a smile: "Since the Zhang Dongjia is entrusted by Lu Taishou, why did he tell me the truth so easily, and ask the Zhang Dongjia to give me advice!" ”

Zhang Hao smiled bitterly: "The villain saw that Lu Tai's heart was not right, on the other hand, after the king of Beihai came to Jimo, he eradicated corrupt officials, rectified the rule of officials, reclaimed wasteland, and saved the people from fire and water." The villain thinks that he is a dead person, and it is better to do some good deeds before he dies, so as not to be guilty of great sins after death. ”

Zhao Min could only smile bitterly. was actually issued a good person card, and it was also ...... by an old haired person Speaking of the old man, Zhao Min suddenly remembered, "Your group of brothers all came down from Mount Tai with you back then?" ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Hao's face returned a little brighter: "Exactly, this group of old brothers are all extraordinary, all kinds of Qimen Dunjia, chicken and dog thieves, but it's a pity that they followed the villain and buried their talents!" ”

Chickens and dogs are also talented? Well, to some extent, it does. Zhao Min said with a smile: "If I can get your 'confession' from Lu Gongzi, is the Zhang Dong family willing to come to my mansion to give in?" "That's right, Zhao Min moved the idea of surrendering these people from just seeing a group of old people in their forties climbing over the wall and crossing the house like walking on the ground. Si Wen Cao Zheng led by Shao Qi needs such a strange man with extraordinary skills! What's even better is that these are a bunch of old men, and they are a perfect match for Si Wencao, who specializes in underground work: after all, who would notice that a bunch of old men could be spies?

Zhang Hao's eyes widened, and his voice couldn't help but tremble a little because of excitement: "Your ...... Does Your Highness mean to forgive us? ”

Zhao Min smiled and waved his hand repeatedly: "Zhang Dongjia has not hurt me, how can you say it?" In addition, Min's King of Beihai is only a knight, not a real prince, and he is not worthy of the title of His Royal Highness, Zhang Dongjia must not be called wrong, otherwise people will inevitably hear that I will be guilty of disrespect! ”

Zhang Hao was so excited that he couldn't say anything at this time, and suddenly rolled to the ground and kowtowed, Zhao Min hurriedly helped him up, comforted him with kind words, and ordered someone to take him down to rest when his mood stabilized. After Zhang Hao left, Zhao Min remembered the book he said, and hurriedly went back to the room to check for a while, and finally found this dusty "Song of Zhou" at the bottom of the clutter-ridden wardrobe.

At this time, Zhao Min was sitting at the desk in a daze, and it was this "Song of Zhou" that was valued by the Lu family on the desk. From the fragments of memory left behind, it is known that this book is a relic left to Zhao Min by Zhao Min's biological mother, Mrs. Xiahou, but nothing else has been left, and nothing special about this book has ever been mentioned. Zhao Min has already flipped the book back and forth twice, it is an ordinary "Song of Zhou", I don't see anything special?

"Song of Zhou" is one of the "Book of Songs", that is, the ode to wind, elegance and song. Of course, there is no such thing as "Book of Songs" in this era, and people at the time called it "Poetry". "Song of Zhou" has a total of 1447 words, a total of 31 poems, mainly about the content of ancient sacrifices. Zhao Min searched over and over again, there were no clips, the book cover could not be opened, and even the paper was the most common Xigong paper used, as thin as cicada wings but the ink was seriously soaked, what white vinegar crayon writing did not work, why did Lu Xu not hesitate to use the killer feature that had been hidden for many years, and forced into the county government to find such a book that has no peculiarities and can be seen everywhere?

Just when he couldn't figure it out, Meng Hou came back and regained his life. Zhao Min saw that his face was gloomy, and he knew that this trip would not go well. Sure enough, Meng Hou sat down and said: "When I arrived at the backyard of Zhang's gold shop, it was already empty. ”

Zhao Min didn't care at all, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, poured a cup of fragrant tea for Meng Hou, and then asked, "Have you ever found the confession that Zhang Dongjia said?" ”

Meng Hou took out a piece of paper from his arms: "What did the King of the North Sea say?" ”

Zhao Min took a look, and saw that when he looked up, it was written "The criminals Zhang Hao and others knelt down ......", and there were forty or fifty dense handprints underneath, was it the 'confession' that Zhang Hao asked for? Zhao Min couldn't help but be overjoyed, now that Si Wencao can expand smoothly, his plan will be more certain!

Zhao Min saw that Meng Hou was still sullen, so he had to persuade: "At that time, the enemy was dark and I was clear, and several frame-up attacks and killings were unsuccessful; Now that the enemy and I are clear, and I have a strong general in hand, I will not move like a mountain, what can he do to me? Didn't my husband advise me to develop my strength step by step? Why is the gentleman so entangled in this? ”

Meng Hou shook his head and sighed: "This time and that time!" If Lu Jiazi can be caught, he can force Lu Xu to comply, which is better than always burying hidden dangers. Hateful but one step too late! After speaking, he smashed a fist on the desk, showing that he was extremely angry.

Zhao Min secretly said in his heart: Wouldn't it be cheaper for him to just let him comply? I don't say anything about harming him three times and twice, but I also want to harm the people around me, how can I comfort the soldiers who died on the battlefield and died in the belly of the fish in the heavens if I don't cut him with a thousand knives? However, seeing Meng Hou's appearance, it was not appropriate to persuade him again, so he had to take the "Song of Zhou" on the table to Meng Hou: "Sir, do you know how this book is different?" Why did Lu Xu flock to it? ”

Meng Hou took the book and flipped through it carefully, shook his head and said suspiciously: "It is not very different from what Hou read in the past!" After speaking, he looked at it carefully, and only then did he say as if he were talking to himself: "If you want to say that it is different, it seems that the order is a little different from what I read in the past." If you look at this "Weiqing", I remember that it should have been before "Liewen", but this one was written before "Siwen". But these poems are in no particular order, and they have little impact. ”

Zhao Min was moved when he heard it: Order change? Could it be that this book is ......
